Côte Dorking

AlwaysAvery pleasing dining experience, food excellent, and staff always so very attentive and welcoming,eat here frequently, our local choice of venue, for meeting our friends

Another very good meal with excellent service as always at this restaurant . Busy and nicely atmospheric... it seems to be the go to place to be in Dorking both at lunch and dinner times . Will be back there within a week .

Ham in Starter was very tough -- maybe should be sliced more delicately Main course - chicken -- generous portion but a bit dry Service efficient although not sure about waitress with large ring in her nose

Had a lovely meal in Cote in Dorking for Mother's Day. Great food and attentive service. My mum very much enjoyed it as did my brother and I.

The restaurant was very busy and we had to wait for the manager to become available to show us to our table, but once we were seated our order was taken fairly quickly, although placing the order was difficult due to the noise level. We soon received the bread and olives we ordered, but our starters arrived before we had finished those. However, the food was up to its usual high standard and our waiter was friendly and helpful. Overall it was a very enjoyable evening.

Really helpful and friendly staff who bend over backwards to assist with our poorly son, even overing to replace his steak that has got slightly cold.

A really pleasant meal in a nice atmosphere with great service. The restaurant was very busy but the service was efficient and friendly without being too overbearing.

We appreciated my birthday Kir Royale! Our waiters were friendly and efficient and the menu choice was excellent. Thank you for yet another great meal. I am already looking forward to my next visit. The staff all work well and happily together and nothing is too much trouble. We like all the Cotes we visit but the nearest, in Dorking, is our favourite situated as it is in a quiet courtyard.

A very pleasant evening. Excellent service, and good food in convenient location. The house wine is excellent value and a glass of calvados went very well with the tart tatin.

Very easy booking process. Went for Mother's Day champagne breakfast and had Fabulous service and wonderful food in a great atmosphere. Very good value. Lovely meal, thank you

Great local place to meet friends, chat and eat, really good inexpensive food suitable for every appetite. The team at Dorking are very friendly, attentive and efficient and the special celebration days eg Mothers Day, Valentines etc offer really good value for money specials.

consistent good food, attentive staff and value for money my husband and I always enjoy our visits to Cote especially when we receive an offer

Restaurant decor was very nice and tables well laid out. Food was good and a reasonable choice on the early evening menu. Service was good and the waiter pleasant.

Good service, food excellent despite the restaurant being very busy. The staff friendly and efficient, food good value for the money, house red wine excellent.

They had the reservation we were greeted on arrivall....the staff were lovely...service was good...food was delicious and very reasonably priced...and I will definitely visit again.

Good excellent - changed the dish for me as I don't eat eggs. Staff great. A very nice start to the day. Thank you, willbook again soon.

An excellent meal, our waiter was very helpful in helping us to decide from many choices available. We had a nice table, only spoilt by an annoying person complaining for the sake of complaining, insisting on trying the wine first. Obviously trying to impress the lady he was with, should think she was totally bored with him. Although the waiter didn't bat an eyelid, very professional & assisted.

Excellent meal - suited our all age party. Did feel though at 10pm that staff were looking forward to going home. lots of clearing up going on - our waitress finished her shift - it would have been nice if she had said goodbye as her service was excellent and then I had to ask for the bill twice and go to the front desk to pay.

Lovely clean resteraunt , very polite staff, amazing crepes! Only little point was one, fries suggested as a side ( with crepes & risotto ?) we opted for green side salad, which arrived after our mains. However it is such a lovely resteraunt and I look forward to visiting again soon.

Food delicious. Service very good. Table slightly small. Complimentary birthday treat! Nice candle lit restaurant with good atmosphere. Would like to have seen a vegetarian special.

We enjoyed our visit eventually but did have an issue with the Manager over a Cote Award of a free bottle of wine which hadn't appeared on their system. I produced the email confirming the booking but that wasn't sufficient so had to re-book whilst the waiter supervised. That didn't work so I had to do it again as their system still hadnt received it. We did ask for a drink in the meantime but from a 7.30 booking it was 8.15 when they eventually cleared the problem and allowed us service! Not good for customer relations.

We were greeted on Arrival...and shown to our table...offered a choice of menus...we chose the Mother's Day Champagne Brunch....which arrived quickly and was delicious...and served with freshly made toast...the juice tasted like freshly squeezed orange juice....the service was friendly and good. We would definitely go back again.

I took my son out for dinner on Mother day, food was very nice, great service, waiter been very helpful when you got question about food.

Slow service and some details missed, but issues were redeemed by manager with feedback and discount applied for recovery of bad customer service. Good food

As always very good service and food very good. Unfortunately one steak ordered medium arrived very rare. Of course they replaced it but meant our party was out of sync.

First class, the food was delicious and the service was fantastic. We will become regulars I hope. Thank you for a wonderful experience on my birthday weekend. 😁

OK although my steak was a bit chewy!! The salad was a small bowl and a bit boring, a bit of spinach and endive. I asked to replace the spinach and fries with a green salad with the steak have the pepper steak but paid the same price. Not rushing back!

We had an excellent early evening meal. Service was top drawer and they were very helpful advising on what food had ingredients where one of us had an intolerance. We chose from the set menu which was excellent quality and value, I especially enjoyed the breaded chicken. Very nice evening.

Excellent lunch and very good service. The waiters were very friendly and attentive and the food was delicious. I would recommend this restaurant which is in a very convenient location in Dorking town centre.

Our lunch was very average - my seafood linguine had hardly any sauce, my mum's soup had no seasoning and was bland; the service was poor, with waiters and waitresses slow and continually chatting to one another. I'm not sure I would consider returning here.

Good food and attentive service. Not too sure about the 12.5% service charge system - even though it's 'optional'. I'm happy to tip but prefer to decide for myself on the level.

Lovely restaurant it has a, great ambiance. Staff are charming and helpful, greeting us when we arrived and attentive and efficient throughout our meal. The food was hot and well presented, it was very tasty.

We have never had a disappointment at Cote, Dorking either in the quality of the food or the efficiency of the service. The staff all work together as one big team and are always friendly and caring.

Lovely bright restaurant,. Great service; busy bank holiday but didn't have to wait too long. Food delicious. One of our dishes was slightly under par but management dealt with it in a professional manner. Would definitely go back. Thank you for an enjoyable visit

Lovely place with friendly staff who go out of their way to please.Food is out of this world.No wonder I keep going back again.and again.

Very nice relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff with good service. The food is always consistently good quality and value at Cote. I would recommend it to anyone.

We had a family get-together to celebrate a 25th wedding anniversary. The food was delicious and well presented, and lucky for us the restaurant was not to busy and noisy. We enjoyed it very much.

Wanted a quick meal before going to dance show in Dorking . Drinks and 2 courses all served up inside an hour . Very good food and excellent service . This restaurant is becoming our first choice in the area . Returning on Saturday !!

Good food which is well presented and reasonably priced, served by pleasant friendly staff in a nice environment. Located in the town centre with parking nearby.

A really enjoyable meal with good services. The food was good and well presented. The restaurant was nicely decorated and the toilet facilities very good.

always a pleasure to eat at Cotes. The staff are very attentive & the food is always of a high standard & never disappoints. We will return.

Excellent as always. Very friendly and attentive staff. The black pudding (or boudin noir here) is not something I'd usually go for but it was the best I've ever had. Very light and tasty. The haddock was also great as was my friend's sirloin steak.

Good food friendly service have been before and will go again that's all. Can't find twenty five words sorry you might want to change that

pleasant quiet ambience, service good , not too fast and not too hovering. The food was very tasty and also served piping hot. All in all a very enjoyable lunch date with our close friends.

A nice meal as always. Friendly staff and good service. Would recommend Cote for a nice breakfast but also lunch and dinner. Good value tasty food.

Ok but not special. Service good but it did feel as if we were eating from a chain-restaurant menu. Wine Sauvignon Blanc no 7) was good but slightly overpriced.

We are regulars so usually enjoy the experience ,service and value . Today the soup was hardly hot. We did mention it. Never had that before.

I've already done of these! All was fine except that the music was too loud We had to ask twice for it to be turned down

The staff were welcoming, attentive and charming. The ambience and restaurant layout was great. We liked the menu and enjoyed each of the courses we ordered.

X2 adults and a 12 ye old boy had lovely dinner, well prepared, tasty and good menu. Service was friendly, efficient and nicely low key. Very good dinner. Not cheap but worth the £116 (including wine, service).
